affirm, says Judge Waldo Brown, in
the Boston Trarelier, that the system Of
indorsing Is all wrong and should be ut
terly abolished. l believe that it has
been the financial ruin of more men than
perhaps all other causes. | think that
our Young men especially should study
the matter carefully in all its bearings
and adopt some policy to govern their
conduct, 80 as to be ready to answer the
man who asks one Of them to sign his
name. What responsibility does one as
sumo when he indOrses a note? Simply
this He Is held for the payment Of the
amount in full, principal and interest, if
the maker of the note, through misfor-
tune, mismanagement or rascality, fails
to pay it. Notice, the indorser assumes
all this responsibility, with no voice in
the management of the business and no
share in the profits of the transaction, if
it proves profitable but with a certainty
Of loss if, for any of the reasons stated,
the principal fails to pay the note.

afternoon, was recovered late that night
through the efforts of Mr.. William Hopkins

that he did not come to the surface. they fled

him some assistance. News of he tragedy
reached Mr.. Hopkins, but entirely too late to
save life. He got boy nstnsd Linton to
dive in the place where Grotf had gone
down and he soon touched the body ice
hooks and other apparatus were then en-
ployed, and the corpse brought to tue surface
about ten o'clock at night
